Bitcoin Shows Signs of Strength as Bulls Guard Against a $12,000 Rejection\u00a0 At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading up just under 1% at its current price of $11,900. This marks a notable upswing from its daily lows of $11,700 that were set overnight. The crypto attempted to breach $12,000 yesterday evening, although the selling pressure here once again proved to be insurmountable. This subsequently led it to slide down towards its overnight lows. Bulls\u2019 ardent defense of $11,700 has allowed it to erase virtually all of the losses that came about as a result of its recent downswing. This is a sign of intense technical strength, as it signals that the cryptocurrency still has significant buying pressure backing it. One reason why $11,700 proved to be such a strong level of support is due to this being the crypto\u2019s weekly open. While speaking about the importance of this level, one analyst explained: \u201cThis range is a beautiful example of how important the weekly open & monthly open levels are.\u201d Image Courtesy of Byzantine General.
